Stuttgart Team News
Stuttgart’s pre-season preparations have offered a clear glimpse of their likely starting XI. Luca Jaquez and Julian Chabot have been regulars in central defence and are expected to continue their partnership on Saturday.
In midfield, Angelo Stiller — who directed much of Stuttgart’s build-up play last season — should line up alongside Atakan Karazor in the engine room.
Going forward, Deniz Undav and Nick Woltemade are the leading candidates to spearhead the attack, supported on the flanks by Jamie Leweling and Chris Fuhrich.
Bayern Munich Team News
New Bayern boss Vincent Kompany looks set to hand a competitive debut to Luis Díaz, with the Colombian winger tipped to start on the left. On the opposite flank, Michael Olise may support striker Harry Kane, forming a fresh-look attack.
However, Bayern will be without star man Jamal Musiala, who suffered a serious injury against PSG in July and is sidelined for the long term.
In midfield, Joshua Kimmich remains a guaranteed starter if fit, while Leon Goretzka is expected to partner him in a double pivot, as Aleksandar Pavlović continues to nurse an eye issue.
At the back, summer signing Jonathan Tah — brought in after leaving Bayer Leverkusen — could make his competitive bow alongside Dayot Upamecano in central defence.
